How is the cast reacting to the cancellation of Lucifer? Recently, stars Tom Ellis and Kevin Alejandro discussed all the efforts to save the cancelled FOX TV show.
The drama stars Tom Ellis as Lucifer Morningstar, who relocates to Los Angeles and begins helping the police solve crimes. The cast also includes Kevin Alejandro, Lauren German, DB Woodside, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Rachael Harris, Aimee Garcia, Tricia Helfer, Scarlett Estevez, and Tom Welling.
During an interview with RadioTimes, Ellis discussed the FOX series’ cancellation and the outpouring of fan support:
It’s so disappointing for fans when they don’t understand the decision making process and it’s important to talk about that right now because people get left in the lurch. … The hardest thing for fans to understand is these decisions are business decisions and not decisions that are there to disappoint them.”
Later, Ellis said the fan response has inspired him to help save Lucifer in any way he can:
The response has spurred me on to at least go, ‘OK, well I’m going to go and take part in these conversations’. When you spend so much time working on something it’s hard not to be passionate about it, certainly for me, and the producers want to harness my passion for it and take it around because it’s helpful for them.”
Speaking with CinemaBlend, star Kevin Alejandro said there may be some hope for Lucifer fans:
I know that Peter Roth and Jerry Bruckheimer’s team love Lucifer. Just like we do. And they won’t just let Lucifer disappear. If there’s an avenue, if there’s a they can knock on, they will knock on it, and I know they are presently doing that. Just trying to figure out if there’s a real home for it and they’re gonna explore every avenue that they can and not let it just disappear. And no matter what happens at the end of this, because of the outpour of emotion and response to the show from our fans, it’s just an incredible way to go out if you have to go out this way because we all know that we created something that our fans truly like and enjoy being part of.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Lucifer? Do you want another season?
Why do they always cancel the good shows? or cause conflict about them? this show is one of the best that Fox has had in a long time…hopefully some other channel will pick it up…..Fox loses a good series..shame
I so love watching Lucifer. Such a fun and witty show. One of the best shows on TV. Please save Lucifer.
Deb said it best.
Of the few tv shows I watch, Lucifer is my favorite. In one show, you can laugh, cry, and explore human emotion and character.
Lucifer is the best series iv watched yet every episode left you excited to see what was going to happen next.. I’m so annoyed that it has been cancelled especially when it was starting to get so interesting I’m going to be so raging if it is cancelled #savelucifer

Love Lucifer please do not cancel
Please save Lucifer. It is a very clever show and Tom Ellis makes the devil someone to love. One of my faves. Please!!!!!!!!!!
Please find a home for Lucifer. It’s my favorite show on tv and I will watch it wherever it goes. I think you guys need to realize there’s a lot of good tv out there. And people don’t watch tv like they use to in the old days. So maybe the way they rate shows have become obsolete. #SaveLucifer
Still kind of holding out hope that, after they exhaust all the opportunities with broadcast and cable networks, they go to DC Universe for new episodes before the cast and sets are dispersed. Why wouldn’t the fledgling streaming service want an off-network DC series with an actual following to pull in viewers of their otherwise totally new live-action slate? LUCIFER’s ratings were higher than any of DC’s CW series as well as Fox’s own GOTHAM, which was renewed. Since the show will undoubtedly be part of the library of series on the channel anyway, it isn’t like there won’t be… Read more »
Lucifer is one of the best shows on tv right now. I love it and cannot wait for Monday nights. So many of the shows that I have loved have been cancelled without a final closure. Haven and Revolution are two of them. It makes me so sad to not continue seeing my favorites on tv. Please keep Lucifer on.
